Results of the 2024 Victorian local elections in Northern Melbourne

[edit]

Not sure why you split the Inner Melbourne page to create this? The current pages/proposed pages for regions with the Inner/Outer split seems to work? Happy to keep but not sure we really needed the split Totallynotarandomalt69 (talk) 06:41, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Primarily for navigability reasons. With the addition of single-member wards in Greater Melbourne especially a singular 'Inner Melbourne' region would be particularly cumbersome to have included all on a single page. Furthermore there tends not to be a great deal of agreement on what constitutes the split between inner and outer Melbourne; e.g. even though the Shire of Mitchell is part of the Outer Melbourne council organisation, it falls in the Hume region in practically all Victorian state department classifications. There may also be issues of confusion regarding the inclusion of LGAs like Greater Dandenong being considered 'inner' Melbourne, when they would be usually considered by most as too far out from the city centre to be considered 'inner'. The pages were therefore split for this reason, but if there are any better workarounds then suggestions are welcome. Cheers DrewPwein (talk) 06:56, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yep I think that's fair reasoning to be honest! I had originally had the Inner/Outer split because of extra wards but looking at the sheer number of wards now...your split makes sense
Are you planning to delete the sections on the Inner Melbourne page that you've moved? Just asking because a lot are embedded on their respective council pages and obviously don't want that to be lost Totallynotarandomalt69 (talk) 06:58, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I'm taking care to make sure the LGAs are moved without too much hassle, the inner Melbourne and other regional pages should be updated promptly. Appreciate the feedback and understanding for the changes! DrewPwein (talk) 07:01, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Really appreciate it! Cheers
Also just to avoid any confusion on my end, is the Inner Melbourne page staying? I'd think it'd include Melbourne CC, Yarra CC, etc but I think you know more about the locations than me Totallynotarandomalt69 (talk) 07:03, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, Melbourne, Port Phillip and Yarra will be staying in Inner Melbourne as they're pretty unanimously considered inner Mebourne above all else. Cheers DrewPwein (talk) 07:15, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I do like the split pages, however, would it not be better to fit (as best as possible) to the Electoral regions of Victoria? That would put Banyule in North Eastern. IDK, I'm so used to that system that it seems weird to me to put Banyule northern haha
Thoughts? Jy Sandford (talk) 10:04, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I wouldn't be totally opposed to this, it would stop the existence of pages like Inner Melbourne having only three LGAs, but also what would the numbers look like for the non-Melbourne pages? Want to make sure none are too big or too small Totallynotarandomalt69 (talk) 10:07, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I suppose then you also run into the problem of where do you place Moonee Valley City Council because it's basically in both Northern Metro and Western Metro. *sigh* Jy Sandford (talk) 10:10, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Good point, FWIW my original logic with the regions was same as for NSW (going off the regions listed on the "LGAs of Victoria" page, the split was to avoid a huuuuuuuge Greater Melbourne page with the new wards)
I'm happy to stick with the @DrewPwein changes unless an obvious problem pops up Totallynotarandomalt69 (talk) 10:11, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe best to just list the LGAs on the top of the page instead of just "six LGAs" etc. :) Jy Sandford (talk) 10:13, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Makes sense to me! Totallynotarandomalt69 (talk) 10:13, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Actually one thing - should it be "South-Eastern" not "Southeastern" for "Results of the 2024 Victorian local elections in Southeastern Melbourne"? Based on the electoral region name which does use a hyphen Totallynotarandomalt69 (talk) 10:14, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I was thinking this, I'd go with the hyphen Jy Sandford (talk) 10:32, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Agree with you there
@DrewPwein you happy to move it/to let it be moved? Totallynotarandomalt69 (talk) 10:33, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Would be fine with that, easy done @Totallynotarandomalt69 @Jy Sandford DrewPwein (talk) 13:50, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sweet, thanks! Totallynotarandomalt69 (talk) 13:58, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@DrewPwein just replying here since it is related to "Results of the 2024 Victorian local elections in Northern Melbourne", is there any source that Whittlesea Labor members are actually endorsed Labor as you've put and not Independent Labor? Just curious Totallynotarandomalt69 (talk) 10:45, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yep, if you look here: https://www.vec.vic.gov.au/voting/2024-local-council-elections/whittlesea-city-council/nominations
You can see which candidates are endorsed by VEC-registered political parties if you look on each candidates' questionnaire responses. The candidates classified as Labor on the "Results of the 2024 Victorian local elections in Northern Melbourne" page should have mentioned ALP endorsements in their questionnaires. You can feel free to double check it - in fact it might actually be a decent idea add that VEC page as a reference. DrewPwein (talk) 12:01, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
ah yep you're right, there are endorsements! good idea re referencing Totallynotarandomalt69 (talk) 14:14, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Results of the 2024 Victorian local elections in Barwon South West

[edit]

Hi @DrewPwein - just wondering why the removal of a handful of INDLIB labels on the Results of the 2024 Victorian local elections in Barwon South West page? Don't mean this in a hostile way - I believe you when you make the edits - but genuinely interested how you found out Totallynotarandomalt69 (talk) 06:42, 11 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Actually don't worry - found the sources! Thanks for making the edits :) Totallynotarandomalt69 (talk) 07:02, 11 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
